The 2011 Frank Horton Invitational

Jul 6, 2011

As in previous years, the Frank Horton Invitational will be run jointly with the Rhodes Invitational. The Rhodes Invitational (in its 21st year) and the Frank Horton Meet (hosted by Christian Brothers High School and in its 23rd year) have been held on the same date each year, but in different areas of Plough Park. Bringing the two events together (over 600 athletes in 5 races) on the newly designed and spectator friendly course will provide a great opportunity for athletes, coaches, and parents to experience cross country in the unique atmosphere of a large competitive meet.
